Measurement and Simulation Analysis of Vertical Cross Longitudinal Settlement between Turning Shield and Foundation Pit

Using numerical simulation technology, the dynamic three-dimensional model of the turning shield and the foundation pit under the condition of vertical intersection is established. The disturbance law of the longitudinal settlement of the foundation pit under the condition of shield construction is studied, and the stress path in the soil is analyzed. The results show that with the gradual advance of the turning shield construction, the settlement mode of the foundation pit changes with the shield construction. During the construction of the turning shield, when the tunnel face is located in front of the foundation pit and under the foundation pit, the ground loss rate is inconsistent, which leads to the change of settlement mode. Under the influence of turning shield construction disturbance, the soil undergoes compression deformation caused by larger additional stress increase; after shield crossing, the soil undergoes unloading deformation caused by more obvious stress relaxation.
